How to make a budget friendly centerpiece with Bowdabra
Materials:
2 yards of 21”wide deco mesh
24” of 6”wide deco mesh
2 Dollar Tree floral bushes
1 Dollar Tree greenery bush or 3 stems of silk leather leaf
3 yards of 2.5”wide ribbon
1 small clusters of flowers, flower pick or single stem bloom for the bow center
Large Bowdabra
Bowdabra Bow Wire
Instructions:
First, cut a piece of Bowdabra bow wire, fold in half and lay it in the Bowdabra. You will have a loop on one side and two loose wires on the other. This will be your slip knot.
Then, scrunch deco mesh in the Bowdabra on which you have folded the ends under to hide the frayed edges. keep scrunching deco mesh into the Bowdabra from the top like an accordion for your base.
Next, lay in the leaves and florals forming a triangle shape.
Next, add some more smaller deco mesh on top of the florals.
To finish, add the sheer ribbon. Create a bow twisting and making loops back and forth. Finish by adding another few sprigs of florals.
You have a gorgeous and full budget friendly centerpiece that you can use for any event or even as a door bow!
